For balances and resets, read RSI’s currency explanation. Package UEC, account UEC and temporary alpha aUEC are different balances.
The referral code gives a new account 50,000 UEC of in-game currency. Toggle the gear below to see how far it goes. Prices are approximate in-game costs and shift between patches, but the point holds: it kits out a fresh character with room to spare.
Tick every item and you are still inside the budget. That is the whole point of starting with the bonus instead of an empty wallet. More on UEC and the bonus.
How to read the equipment budgets
Equipment totals and the loadout calculator are illustrative budgets, not live shop prices. Alpha uses aUEC; prices, starting balances and mission payouts can change between builds. Check the current in-game shop before committing your credits. RSI currency definitions
